## Summary

The procurement process for the provision of alternative education services through equine activities has been completed by Respect Collaboration Trust, a public authority in Derby, United Kingdom. This project focuses on offering educational services to children of compulsory school age who cannot receive suitable education within traditional school settings, due to reasons such as suspension or exclusion. The awarded contract, valued at £250,000 (gross amount: £300,000), is under an open procedure and follows the light-touch regime. The award was finalised on 10th July 2026, with the contract period set from 1st September 2026 to 31st August 2027, renewable annually for up to five years.

This tender opens avenues for growth within the education and training industry, specifically for businesses that specialise in alternative education methods and equine services. Companies capable of offering expertise in these specialised educational activities, along with a solid infrastructure for service delivery, are well-suited to compete. Additionally, the opportunity to engage in contracts with recurring annual renewals provide a strategic path for sustained business expansion within the educational service sector, catering to unique schooling needs and contributing to community welfare.
